MIDI Solutions Footswitch Controller

MIDI Solutions Footswitch Controller

The MIDI Solutions Footswitch Controller provides a 1/4" phone jack input for connection to a footswitch or contact closure which can be used to trigger MIDI events (for eight footswitch inputs in a single rack space unit, see the MIDI Solutions F8). Triggered MIDI events are merged with incoming MIDI messages and sent to the MIDI output of the Footswitch Controller.

Triggered event types are programmable and include:

• Note
• Control Change
• Pitch Bend
• Program Change
• Start/Stop
• System Exclusive
  

Other functions include:

• Program Change Inc/Dec
• Rechannelize
• Transpose
• Tap Tempo
• Note on Filter
  

MIDI Echo and Footswitch Toggle parameters are selectable on/off.

The Polarity of the footswitch can be determined automatically on power-up, or programmed to normally-open or normally-closed.

The Footswitch Controller is programmed by sending it MIDI System Exclusive messages. This can be done easily with the Processors Programming Tools Software. Once programmed, its settings are retained even after power is removed. The Footswitch Controller can be reprogrammed with new settings as often as needed.

The Footswitch Controller is MIDI-powered, and requires no batteries or power supply to operate with most MIDI products . A MIDI indicator LED lights up when the product is powered and flashes when MIDI data passes through it.
